The Episcopal Church @ Seattle Pride!

The Episcopal Diocese of Olympia—a network of 100 churches across Western Washington—marches in solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community, celebrating God’s love for all. Grounded in our Baptismal Covenant, we commit to "respect the dignity of every human being" through action: building affordable housing, serving unhoused neighbors, and resettling hundreds of immigrant families annually.

Our churches welcome everyone—not just through our doors, but at our tables and behind our pulpits. Over half of our active clergy identify as women, BIPOC, and/or LGBTQIA+, reflecting our belief that the church thrives in diversity. Together, we strive to create a beloved community where all are cherished.
